Happy Days · « **Reply #15 on:** June 11, 2011, 08:20:45 AM »

Er, sorry Ralph. I can see Big L. from where I live, but Tountinna is well and truly below my horizon. :lol:
Sorry about that!

Hope you all have a good day, I’d guess you’ll be doing a combination of thermal and dynamic flying as I see it the wind speeds are forecast as low.

Good luck, and remember to post plenty of picies/video! :wink:

what a great day's flying! warm sunshine, lots of thermal activity and not a drop of rain all day. like i said earlier, flying in light winds brings its own challenges and rewards. a most enjoyable day, good company, good banter and plenty of good cheer.

thanks to everyone who took part, hope ye enjoyed it as much as i did. looking forward to next year's event already.
i'll get some photos up as soon as i can.

Weather was fab too.
Well done Gerry.
